Nice! Perhaps an orphanage or hotel? Very impressive, I like the verandahs.

I would have to have a word with the sub contractors though, there is a serious construction infraction going on there, with a total breach of OH&S. Can you please get the union to finish the top floor hand rail, before there is an accident? ;)

Cheers

That's the expedited exit plan...it's how they meet fire code - being able to quickly exit all patrons in the event of a fire.  lol

Thanks for the replys - thought about the railing , but i will keep it as is it now, easier to move the models around:-)
Need to finish the inside floor and build a roof:-)

Looks pretty good and better than I can do.  :D  One question - Did you intend it to link up with other buildings via the side walk or is it a standalone building?  If the former then you might want to remove the ground floor side rails.

Didn't think about the side rails - good idea:-)

Yup, I scratch all my own buildings too (though I cheat and use resin cast windows) and i always leave the end rails off for different configurations.   I like the vertical planking under your veranda covers...I may try that myself.
